What will be an ideal response?
Popular children are liked by many classmates. Rejected children are disliked by many classmates. Controversial children are liked and disliked by classmates. Neglected children are ignored by classmates. Parenting style contributes to the development of these groups because children imitate their parents' response to different social situations. Parents also contribute to their children's social skills and popularity through their disciplinary practices. Inconsistent discipline is associated with antisocial, aggressive behavior which leads children to be rejected by their peers.
